The Golden Torch of the Tropics! 🏝️
This mid-sized heliconia brightens landscapes with:
• 12-15″ upright flower spikes in vibrant lemon-yellow with lime-green accents 🟡🟢
• Lush foliage (4-5 ft tall) – perfect for small spaces 📏
• Continuous blooming – produces flowers 9 months/year in warmth 📅
Why This Heliconia Stands Out:
✅ Balcony-Friendly – Thrives in 15-gallon pots 🏙️
✅ Cut Flower Gem – Spikes last 10-14 days in arrangements 💐
✅ Pollinator Favorite – Hummingbirds visit daily 🦜
✅ Wind-Resistant – Sturdy stems withstand breezes 💨
